HTMLTableCellElement: bgColor property
Deprecated
Avoid using this feature in new projects. Some table styling attributes have no effect. They are superseded by CSS. This feature may be a candidate for removal from web standards or browsers.
The HTMLTableCellElement.bgColor property is used to set the background color of a cell or get the value of the obsolete bgColor attribute, if present.
Note:
This property is deprecated and CSS should be used to set the background color. Use the background-color property instead.
Value
One of the following value types can be used:
- a named color, like
redorblue - a hex code, like
#0000ddor#00d
Note:
The values accepted here are a limited subset of the CSS color values. Only <named-color> and 3- or 6-digit <hex-color> (with no alpha-channel). While all HTML color values are valid in CSS, this is not true in the other direction.
Examples
Use CSS background-color instead. An example of using background-color with HTML table elements is available on the background-color page.
